Shellder are water type Pokemon who become Closters when exposed to a Water Stone. Shellders are also essential in the evolution of a Slowpoke to a Slowbro. In order for it to be a Slowbro, Shellder must latch onto the tail of the Slowpoke in question. The two Pokemon effectively become one, but if Shellder ever lets go of the tail, it will revert to its old form and the Slowbro will de-evolve back into Slowpoke. How any of this is possible is still a mystery to all the Pokemon Professors.

Attack Description
Shellder sits in one place, doing nothing. If you approach Shellder, you can pick it up and throw it at an opponent. If Shellder hits an opponent, it clamps on, stopping them from moving. Shellder will do 3% to the opponent every 2 seconds for 16 seconds. Your opponent can escape faster by rapidly moving the control stick. If an opponent approaches Shellder, Shellder immediately clamps on. Same thing happens to opponents that walk up to Shellder that happens to opponents who Shellder gets thrown at.
